27-RFQ-011-Amend-1.docx

This is an Amendment 1 document to a Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) for the Roadway Toll Systems Modernization Programs. The amendment modifies the original solicitation that seeks proposals from qualified bidders to design, develop, implement, operate, and maintain roadway toll systems in Washington State. WSDOT intends to award two independent contracts through this single RFP: one for Open Road Tolling (ORT) Roadway Toll Systems and another for Side-Fire Roadway Toll Systems. Each contract will be evaluated separately, with WSDOT retaining the option to award future toll collection facilities to either or both contractors depending on project scope and state needs. The amendment provides clarifications, modifications, or additions to the original RFQ terms, conditions, and requirements that bidders must incorporate into their proposals.

The specific modifications contained in Amendment 1 should be carefully reviewed by all potential bidders, as they supersede or supplement corresponding provisions in the original RFQ documents. Bidders are required to acknowledge receipt of this amendment and comply with all revised specifications, pricing structures, and submission requirements. The amendment ensures that all prospective contractors operate under identical, updated terms and maintains competitive equity throughout the bidding process for this significant infrastructure modernization initiative.
